Viewing Virtual Disk Properties

Follow these steps to view the properties of RAID 0, RAID 1 or RAID 10

virtual disks:

Select a controller from the

Adapter List

in the Configuration Utility.

Select the

RAID Properties

option.

• If there are no existing virtual disks, you will be prompted to create a

RAID 0, RAID 1 or RAID 10

virtual disk.

• If there is one existing virtual disk, select

View Existing volume

• If there are two existing virtual disks, press <Alt><N> to view the

next virtual disk.

• If a compatible global hot spare exists it displays with the members of

the virtual disk.

Press <Enter> when the

Manage volume

item is selected to manage the

current virtual disk.

Activating a Virtual Disk

A virtual disk can become inactive if, for example, it is removed from

one PERC H200 card and moved to another one. The Activate option allows

you to reactivate an inactive virtual disk that has been added to a system.

This option is only available when the selected virtual disk is currently inactive.

NOTE: Do not migrate a volume or hotspares to a different system unless that

system does not currently have the maximum number of virtual disks and hotspares.

There is a maximum of 2 hot spares and 2 virtual disks supported globally.

Hot spares only apply to a redundant volume if it is of the same type and at least

the same capacity of the volume. Exceeding this number may result in

undesirable behavior.
